Hmmmm, I can think of some possible causes... - your download was corrupt or truncated - check that the sha1sum of the iso is $ sha1sum OLPCXS-0.5.1-dev03-i386.iso eab0fd3596bbfca532eec51eb5e774cb00b25cd8 OLPCXS-0.5.1-dev03-i386.iso - You are hitting a low mem condition while installing the selinux-policies package.

That can help if the problem is with RAM - I think you need to hit tab earlier -- before the graphical installer starts. There is a very early screen, as soon as the CD or USB stick is read - hit escape *there*... > Could be the GPU problem? Very unlikely to be GPU or CPU > What can be do in these cases? - Ensure the iso is good (with sha1sum), check memory, try to uyse the text installer. - Installing from USB is a bit less reliable - try with a CD - Try is to install a standard Fedora 9 on the machine - sometimes there are subtle incompatibilities there... > Is there another way to start the installation?
